The South Galactic Cap U-band Sky Survey
Zhou FAN (NAOC)
Scientific Goals
1. Supplying the input catalogue for LAMOST (Guo Shoujing); 2. Classifications of the stars, galaxies, AGN and quasars in the south
Galactic cap region with the color-color diagram;3. Detecting the red shift z<3 quasar candidates combining the
photometry in other bands;4. Improving the accuracy of measuring the red shift of the galaxies
with PhotoZ combining the photometry in other bands;5. Searching for the starburst galaxies candidates;6. Estimating the metallicity of the stellar populations in the galaxies;7. Identifying the type of the stars in the color-color diagram combining
the photometry in other bands, which can help us the control the completeness of the star type for the LAMOST observations;
8. For the flux calibration of the LAMOST spectra.

The 90-inch Bok Telescope
• Organization: Steward Observatory.
• Location: Kitt Peak, Arizona, USA
• Wavelength: optical, infrared
• Diameter: 2.3m (90 inches)
Location―Kitt Peak
• Altitude: 6,900 ft (2071 m)
• Latitude: +31° 57' 46.5“

The Telescope Moving Speed in RA
N1= 28 N2= 30 V_RA(+)= 6.50402451 SEC/DEG V_RA(-)= 7.75749779 SEC/DEG
• We have 55 nights, then
Exp Time of Each Field=(55 nights ×10 hours / nights ×65% useful night )/ 3700deg^2=5.80 min/deg^2
Total Observation Time
Bok 300s: 1.5 mag deeper than SDSS
Limiting Mag (S/N=10)= 21.91 — Limiting Mag (S/N=10)= 20.48 = 1.43 magLimiting Mag (S/N= 5)= 22.68 — Limiting Mag (S/N= 5)= 21.09 = 1.59 mag
Bok 300s: 1.5 mag deeper than SDSS

The Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey(PAndAS)
PAndAS is an astronomical survey using the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, which will obtain g and i imaging of over 300 sq. degrees of the M31/M33 sub-group.
